A late-blooming bantamweight out of Arizona's MMA Lab whose rise earned him a main event against Petr Yan in July 2025, where he lost a clear decision. An explosive striker with eight knockouts in eleven wins, backed by 90 percent takedown defense. He returned from the Yan loss with a unanimous decision over John Yannis in June 2026.
